Space Battleship Yamato - U.N.C.F. Andromeda

The UNCF Andromeda (AAA-01) is a battleship built as the new flagship of the United Nations Cosmo Fleet, as a successor to the older Yamato. The Andromeda is the ultimate battleship, capable of bringing immense firepower and survivability to the battlefield, and of changing the tide of a battle on its own.

• Blocks count: 20.258
  
• Weight: 72.328.808kg
  
• Length: 138 blocks = 345m = 1132ft
  
• Width: 43 blocks = 107,5m = 353ft
  
• Height: 55,5 blocks = 138,75m = 455ft
  
• Maximum shield health: 211.106.300HP
  
• Jump range: 30.000km
  
• Power: 410GW

The AAA-01 first line of defense are its first-in-class shields, which can sustain continuous, heavy fire without collapsing.
If the shields are incapacitated or overloaded, however, the Andromeda can still count on a clever armor design. While the average thickness is of 1.5 heavy armor blocks, critical sections of the ship like the engine or the combat bridge are protected by up to five layers of heavy armor.

• Twin Frontal Wave Motion Gun
  
• 4x Triple Barrel 480mm Shock Cannon Turrets
  
• 2x Triple Barrel 200mm Shock Cannon Turrets
  
• 22x Double Barrel 127mm Pulse Laser Turrets
  
• 10x Quadruple Barrel 127mm Pulse Laser Turrets
  
• 3x Triple barrel 88mm Pulse Laser Turrets
  
• 24x Double Barrel 75mm Pulse Laser Turrets
  
• 12x Triple Barrel 75mm Pulse Laser Turrets
  
• 6x Sextuple Gatling turrets
  
• 4x Long-range Torpedo Launchers
  
• 27x Short-range Torpedo Launchers
  
• 4x Point Defense Laser Turrets
  
• 2x Thermonuclear Warheads

The ship is heavily armed. The primary weapon system consists of four high-caliber shock cannon turrets, capable of firing both energy rounds and kinetic Type-3 rounds, making them powerful and effective against a wide set of targets. To add firepower and increase coverage of the space around the ship, two smaller shock cannon turrets have been added to the bottom of the ship.

While the main turrets are busy targeting large ships, more than fifty fast-firing lasers and gatlings are capable of creating a wall of fire all around the Andromeda. Together with a few strategically placed point defense turrets, this barrage stops most missiles, projectiles or smaller vessels even before they have a chance to hit the shields or the hull.

However, the twin full-sized Wave Motion Guns are the true pride of the Andromeda. No other base or ship, including another Andromeda-class ship, can withstand a direct hit from the Wave Motion Gun, even if shields are considered. Due to the extreme power at play, the ship loses almost all of its energy while charging the weapon.

As a last resort for emergency situations, the two bottom tanks can be detached to reveal their true nature: thermonuclear missiles. Each missile has its own independent mechanism, with a remote control, antenna and power, to ensure the delivery of the lethal payload in any case.

• Twin Wave Motion Engine (2 × 180GW)
  
• Auxiliary Engine (50GW)

While the Wave Motion Engines are the only power source capable of supplying the ship of the energy needed to operate the weapons, an auxiliary reactor has been installed to maintain the life support and basic systems functional even in the event of a Wave Motion Engine malfunction.

While the main role of the ship is clearly that of a battleship, the AAA-01 is fitted with a spacious hangar, capable of servicing four Cosmo Delta type fighters at a time, and housing up to seven. Two hangar doors, opening on the side of the ship, allowing fast take-off and landing operations.
The weaponry, hangar and power systems do not paint the full picture of the services and rooms available on board. All throughout the ship, carefully thought corridors keep movement inside the Andromeda intuitive and multiple stairs and convenient passageways provide a quick connection between the many decks.

Inspired by the Yamato’s bridge, this is where the captain and high ranking officials control the ship most of the time, under normal circumstances. This is the highest habitable room of the ship. Every official is granted a personal station where all the relevant information and controls can be accessed.

While the main bridge is suited for exploration and smaller skirmishes, its relatively thin armor is not enough to guarantee the required protection of the commanding crew. The combat bridge is very similar to its counterpart, but is located deep inside the ship hull, with several additional heavy armor layers surrounding it.

Before any major battle or operation, the crew meets in the intelligence room to review previously gathered information, choose the strategy to adopt, and do a briefing

While shaped like the Yamato's engine, the Andromeda Wave Motion Engine is much newer, more powerful and reliable.

A massive weapon like the Wave Motion Gun requires an equally massive firing mechanism. When charging, the tachyons build up in the energy capacitor, and when the trigger is pulled the capacitor is connected to the gun’s firing port, releasing all the stored power at once.

In the Andromeda the navigation system and the turrets’ targeting systems are completely automated, with the help of the computer room.



Aside from the main medical room, located in the hull, a smaller infirmary has also been installed at the base of the ship’s conning tower to help with the in-game spawn mechanics.







The Andromeda has a large mess hall with a kitchen where most meals are consumed. A smaller cafè is also available onboard.
The Andromeda also sports an automatic repair system that can slowly bring damaged blocks back to their original state, but it cannot work without the required repair parts. All the alarms use the original sounds from the anime. To further improve ease of navigation inside the Andromeda, a door auto-close system has been put in place.
The design of the Andromeda and the SBY2022 anime are creations of their respective owners.
